Hi all,
a friend of mine found this picture on internet. He asked me to try to identify this object.
I think it's a aircraft bomb, antipersonal, with a french look.
We don't have other details as dimensions, color,....

Who can help us with an ID idea ?

Nothing is more similar as a bomb than a trench mortar !
Perhaps another way to think !
